These are my thoughts on theology and life after experiencing God's sovereign and amazing grace.

Book Recommendations from DesiringGod.org

I recently found a list of recommended books at the Desiring God website including books on the following topics:

General, Historical, and Systematic Theology

Attributes of God

The Trinity

The Person of Christ

Providence and Predestination

Diving Sovereignty and Human Responsibility

Open Theism

Doctrine of Scripture

Doctrine of Humanity and Sin

Law and Gospel

The Life of the Mind

Preaching

Apologetics

Biographies

Biblical Studies

History

Counseling

Children

Youth

Parenting

Marriage

Literature

and lots more!!!

I think a good strategy for personal growth might be to pick one of these topics, purchase and read all the books in the category, then move to another category. Some categories might be more valuable than others to begin with (particularly, we might start with the category on "Reading"). What a great education we could receive from reading these books, not to mention the great library we would treasure when we finish!
